Hi all

It's been 3 weeks since my graft my sight seems to be stable although I have started to get an exstreamly uncomfortable and painful sensation in the corner of my eye. Any one else had this feeling when recovering from there graft.

Thanks Ian I'll look into it when I start looking into having new glasses. Which according to moor fields may not be another 6 months after the surgery. Hope it can be sooner as it would be nice to think I can start to see the results.

Totally agree. Don't want to think how much I've spent on glasses since being diagnosed with KC. Would love to wear contact lenses but have tried all types and I just can not get comfortable with them.

Just wish there were options as people seem to make a lot of money out of this condition.

Savings accounts are a good ideas but as you know due to having KC. Glasses are more exsoensive and I know I'm gonna need a couple of changes.

Thanks david

Good to hear a positive exsperiance. Feel a little more positive today myself having a change in medication has made me feel a little more comfortable and hope now I'm on the road to recovery.

Back from hospital. Everything fine with the graft. Pain down to being dispensed wrong medication and headaches and dizzy spells due to still recovering from anaesthetic. Back next Monday to see surgeon

Probly is the anaesthetic I agree. Other thought was I have a contact lens in my eye and my eyes always swell when I have theses in so it may not be making me feel that great also.
